The sushi rolls are pretty good and they have a wide variety. This is their specialty. Ordered the Tempura Shrimp Vegetable dinner. Came with cucumber salad in ponzu sauce, was ok but woud have liked to see a mixture of lettuce and tomato. The Miso soup was a little waterery so flavor only had a slight miso flavor. The presentation of the dinner plate was on chopped cabbage. Would have like to see it on shredded cabbage and the chop just look like it was thrown on. The tempura was ok but served with teriyaki sauce. Mixup with the staff. The owner manager came over and appoligized and gave us free fried ice cream. Was ok but a little doughie. Fried ice cream is hard to make and serve without melting the ice cream. Glad we had a chance to meet one of the owner's whose Brother, Trapper, started the business. Would I go again, yes and try more rolls and other dinners. read more

See all

We didn't even get the full order. When I received the order I asked if that was it and they said yes. I was missing a whole roll. The sushi tasted like it had been sitting out and it was soggy. We were missing two whole rolls from the order. The phone also wasn't even working so when I got home I wasn't able to call to say that I didn't get everything. read more

I visited Trappers in Covington today and I am so sick of how they run their sushi bar. It's a first come first serve basis, but if you sit and wait--- even if your party isn't entirely present-- you can reserve the whole bar for huge parties of people and take up the entire bar for themselves. That happened today when a huge party of 10 came in to take up the entire bar and they refused service to a party of two because they were trying to clear the entire bar out. They say it's against the rules but servers do it anyway. Then they refuse to seat smaller parties who are avaliable to be seated. It's happened to me at almost all of their south end locations and I am so done dealing with their crappy customer service and overpriced rolls. Won't be coming back. read more

Went here once and never again, if you don't care for quality sushi - eat here!!! Come here to get nasty hard rice. This is a one and done type of deal, this place has gotta go. I'm sorry, but not sorry. read more

Extremely long wait for just 2 flat roll orders. Poor communication among staff- food brought to wrong tables multiple times. No appatizers (edamame, cucumber salad, etc) offered for our wait. A table who ordered 10 minutes after us was served first even though they had ordered much more food than us. Unfortunately had to leave after 30 minutes of not being served to catch a movie. But judging from the comments the service here is only getting worse. Use to be a favorite sushi spot, but won't be wasting so much time again. read more

I've been going to trappers for a while now and it is so amazing every time we are here on a Monday night for the 3 rolls for $25 and it's very busy and the entire serving and kitchen are not missing a beat everyone looks so please and there food pumping out! We sat in the bar and our bartender Katie has SUCH amazing service she made our drinks so fast and took our orders at the same time, she was super friendly had such a great time will Be back! read more

I love this place, and I'm surprised the reviews aren't better. It's clean, good service, and outstanding food. Don't come here for authentic or traditional Japanese sushi - this certainly strays from that - but it tastes delicious. Prices are reasonable especially for their specials. AYCE is awesome at the sushi bar. They aren't super fast, but the restaurant is usually busy, and food exceptional, so it's well-worth the 90 minutes for dinner. read more

I got take out and was disappointed to wait 40 minutes only for them to forget my potstickers and my teriyaki chicken was absolutely disgusting, the fried vegetables on the side was soggy and the chicken itself had absolute NO TERIYAKI SAUCE!!!! It tasted like semi warm canned chicken. Will not be getting takeout from trappers again. read more

I've been a trappers fan since it was sushi town. I waited in line for lunch at the small sushi bar 12+ years ago. Covington opened and I started going there. I've been there a lot. Something has happened. Suddenly. I brought friends to check it out on Sunday night (12/22). There were 5 people behind the sushi bar, including a long term employee in a red uniform. I left there feeling embarrassed for talking up trappers to my Friends because we felt incredibly unwelcome. So unwelcome I had to ask if the two rolls I had were cheaper than the AYCE price (which I've never done). I've left plenty of positive reviews for trappers on here and google. I hope those reviews helped grow their business. Personally, I feel like something has changed. I went on their website to maybe leave a less public suggestion but there is no avenue on the trappers website. So I'm not sure what to do. It's been a day. I've been able to settle down. After so many years, I won't go back to the Covington trappers. read more

Absolutely awesome! Our server Allison was a very cheerful Rockstar! Made us feel right at home and was very timely! Knew all our needs before we needed them! A++, the host, busser and kitchen staff were all friendly too! Mad props! Thanks for making our evening as covid free as possible! ;) The food was incredible too, best peppers we have had in awhile! The volcano roll is what's up! Thanks again guys! Great work! read more

Great sushi great location it is clean and friendly. The food is bomb and environment is very welcoming. If your out in Covington stop in for a bite you won't be left hanging. read more

When I moved out in this area, everyone told me I had to try this place. I finally did and they were so right. Good quality, good service, good environment, I will be back many more times! read more

The best SUSHI I have had in Washington State, I am originally from California. I haven't had great sushi since moving hear 5 years ago and this was such an amazing treat! Will be eating here again, for sure!!!! read more

Sushi is great but good luck if you order take out. First time I was told half hour wait... It took about 75 minutes. Second time I went I was told 45 minute wait. It took almost an hour & 45 mins. I understand if you're short staffed or have a lot of orders but at least provide a close to accurate wait time! read more

Not good. The manager confirmed that this was the correct portion for the steak and chicken teriyaki combo. read more

The greed kicks in. Their new "specials" are all price hikes. They're publicly blaming it on a minimum wage increase. Because a $2 dollar wage increase means you need to increase special prices by 20+%. Lol. These cats better hope Genki or Blue Sea don't show up in Southern King County. They're goners if an affordable AYCE or Kaiten place shows up. read more

This place is fabulous. I always sit at the bar for the all you can eat. It's expensive but worth it. There are times where the place is slammed and it's hard to get a seat. Sometimes it is very annoying when little kids are there with their parents taking up seats at the bar because the bar is the only place you can sit for the all-you-can-eat. read more

You have to try the Shrooman. So fantastic. Great flavors on all the rolls we've had. 3 for 30 makes it affordable too

Overall I wasn't super satisfied with the food. The service was great and it was a pretty cool place. I have been to a trapper before at another location and I thought it was pretty good there, but it wasn't the same story here. The service was great. The waitress was friendly and the staff seems to work well together. They made there work environment fun for themselves as well as the customers. The problem for me was the food. It was just so plain to me and cheap. No flavor and nothing that had me satisfied. My wife and I had the Very Happy, the Seattle, The New York, and the Spicy Tuna. None of them had me wanting to come back. I'd say maybe the Very Happy was the best of the four. The Spicy Tuna was not even spicy, and I am pretty sensitive with spicy foods (my wife ordered it). I feel as tho I am being nice by giving this place 3 stars because the only thing that saved them was the service. But for a restaurant, you can have the friendliest staff in the world, but it's the food that makes a restaurant good or bad. read more

Trapper's Sushi - The New York - Sushi Bars Near Me - Covington, Washington

This is worst sushi. Low grade fish. Tuna was not tasty. Dried. The rice flavor was plain, no flavor. Rice was not cooked all the way. Sushi rice needs to be sticky, not fall apart and dry. read more

One of my favorite spots for sushi! Always good service and great food! I love getting the complimentary edamame before dinner . All varieties of rolls... spicy and tame.. works for all people read more

I have no idea how this place stays in business. Either that or repeat customers have never eaten at a good sushi restaurant before. The sushi here wouldn't even qualify as "Covington good". The only thing worse is their service. read more

Went in for some sushi and their vegetable tempura dish. The rice, chicken and rolls are top notch and well made bring very distinct flavors to your mouth. The wait for food/takeout is a tad long for my taste but it can be expected when they are making their food fresh at the sushi bar. The vegetable tempura dish leaves much to be desired, especially for the price (both entree and appetizer) with small portions and so/so quality. Their rice and teriyaki chicken is delicious enough but the same quality can be found at a typical teriyaki joint for 5 bucks less. Their customer service and restaurant cleanliness is top notch. read more

I'll start by saying that the service was AWFUL! My family of 4 went here at 3:30 for an early dinner. We ordered and 45 minutes later my kids food was brought out. They had completely finished and our three rolls we ordered still were not out. After a full hour of waiting we got up and left (kids eat free sundays) read more

Was excited to dine in until I saw the lack of proper infection control. It ruined my meal witnessing the servers wearing non-compliant masks that don't stay on their faces. Our server pulled his mask up 16 times and never sanitized once during our visit. The other server ran his hands thru his hair and another ran around the restaurant with a phone in his hand. These are all huge violations of cleanliness even without a pandemic. Fortunately I couldn't observe how the rolls were being prepared, although at least one chef was wearing the pull up style mask. These are not effective and highly discouraged by the cdc. Keep your hands off your face/nose and hair while serving food!! Cross contamination at it's best...your customers are watching!! read more

Service was lousy. Trying to get a quick bite to eat. There are other places that you should spend your money that will appreciate a customer. read more

Trappers is very accommodating to us! I am not able to eat rice so they actually do a deconstructed roll for me. I can't thank them enough for being so great the Trapper roll is our fav! read more

They were super busy tonight, but the manager Aaron was making sure everyone was happy. We love this place, and have been going there for around 7 years. Great options for kids- the chicken tenders (or whatever they are called there) are actually really good, which means the whole family is happy! All you can eat sushi at the sushi bar is also really worth it. That is what we normally do! read more

We ordered takeout for valentines day and half of our rolls arrived with no fish. When I called the letting them know about the issue and asking for a refund, I was told that the restaurant ran out of fish. I asked why orders were sent out with no fish, the person I spoke with had no response. I was told my order couldn't be refunded as it was purchased through UberEats and when I asked for a gift card I was told they couldn't do that either. I really can't believe a sushi restaurant would intentionally send out orders with no fish and then refuse to fix the problem. read more

Love the sushi - wish the prices were more affordable because their draining our bank account- we eat here far too often but it's ohhh so worth it! Best sushi in town, always fresh always flavorful and always a fun experience! read more

I love coming here for sushi. We always receive great service. I've had everything from the long rolls to the sashimi and have never been disappointed till recently. We recently came in for lunch and did the 2 rolls for $13.95. I have to say I was disappointed about the portion sizes. It was 95% rice and 5% filling on the Buddha roll. I expect smaller portions with lunch specials but not that extreme. Next time, I would rather pay full price to get a better portion of filling. Other than that, we love coming here. I love that they are very active in the community with raffles to benefit various charities. read more

Best trappers around! We love their sushi but other locations are terrible. It always comes out right here

We really use to enjoy coming here, we understand when things get busy. Last night rolls were not up to par . We did eat our meal but my stomach when we got home was not happy. I will be taking a break from here for a while and maybe at some point May give a chance! read more

All you can eat sushi for $18?!? Soo good. Lots to choose from. I nearly had to roll myself out of there from eating so much.

Honestly overall I did not like the sushi at Trappers. Now I understand that this is very Americanized sushi and that is what they are going with the menu but the quality was just not that good. The fish seemed fine but most of the other ingredient seemed just okay and not very fresh. Overall this was a huge disappointment since iv seen so many good reviews for this location. The sushi rice which is a VERY important part of sushi was mushy and just did not seem fresh. It made the whole roll very sub par and not something I would like to try again. One of the rolls we had was a tempura one and it just did not go very well with the other flavors. I don't remember which roll it was specifically. I also had the tempura ice cream here, now that seemed fine, but it also was sub par. I understand that getting tempura ice cream right can be difficult. But I have had much better homemade tempura ice cream. If you haven't had tempura ice cream before I would try it here just because its so good overall but just keep in mind that its not the best here and would definitely try it somewhere else. The service was okay, server seemed nice, didn't really pay any attention to us. If there was nowhere else to go for sushi I would come here but overall I personally would try to avoid this place. Basically I didn't hate it completely. It is worth trying for yourself to see if you like it just don't have high expectations. But for me, seeing as how there is a much better sushi place pretty close I will definitely not be returning anytime soon. I sure hope they figure out the Sushi rice thing, I can not stress how important good sushi rice is. read more

Horrible customer service. Was one my favorite place to eat for sushi since it's near home. But never coming back again. Sat down and they brought food to guy next to us and we was here way before him. Maybe cause they was busy but still that's horrible customer service. Taking my business else where. read more

Always have great service at this location! The sushi is delicious and you can tell it's fresh.

It's really too bad that the service here is so horrible because the sushi is actually really good. This is not the first time we've experienced something like this. We came in for dinner and were told that it would be a 15 minute wait because they were short staffed. Not a problem we understand that in these times. Mind the restaurant was half empty. There were four groups waiting. While we were waiting at least six new staff members came in to start work. Rather than hustling to get people seated and at least get things going they all sit around and talk each other. For the poor hostess, who is actually hustling cleaning tables and trying to get things done and everyone else out there doing nothing to assist. One was focused on restocking the suckers into a basket rather than helping customers. The ultimate insult was when they started seating people ahead of us, even though we were first in line. We left and went to Sumo Sushi and had a great meal. read more

This is the best Sushi place Ive eaten at in the state of WA. On Sundays kids eat free, 1 per adult, so no your parents cant bring the whole elementary class to eat :). The all you can eat dinners are the best part. The shrimp tempura always hits our table fresh and pipping hot not like some spots that pre make them and just heat them up a little. The ones they make here you can see them sizzling in the fryer before it gets to you. The service here is great. The chefs are really cool (absolutely 5 stars just for the service from these guys) (I think Corey was the name of one the the chefs that was great, tall beard skinny light skin and the shorter dark skin fuzzy head guy) and the host/wait staff always are friendly and on top of things. The place is very nice and kept very clean. As for the sushi, they have many creative and tasty rolls. The Dragon, Mariner, Rainbow, Trapper and Marvelous are some of my favorites. I have yet to try the other stuff on the menu as Ive just come here for the good sushi and tempura but when I do I'll update my review. Thanks to the great staff and food my experiences here has always been consistently good. I wish it was closer to where I lived in King County but its worth the 30 min drive to eat here. read more
